Revenue Measures
Require Attention Of
General Assembly
(BY DAN TOMPKINS)
The General Assembly, or rather
the Senate, is still worrying with tile
Revenue Bill, reported out of Senator
Kanis -Newman's finance committee,
calculated 'to raise sufficient revenue
to carry the expenses of the State for
the next two years. When the Senate
losolved itself inlto the committee of
the whole, and assaults on the hill be
';m> this week, the problem of wheth
er the the Assembly will adjourn soon
<?r a Ion?? time from now, began to
jump itself backward and forward,
Host peo])le in position to know
!nnk that adjournment will come
ometimc between Easter and the first
>t May, which will be a whole three
.veeks earlier than the record of two
?oars ago, and four weeks better than
'ie 1031 session.
Senators Johnston, of Buncombe,
' amsey of Transylvania, and Brown
ng of Swain, successfully assailed the
mnisions of the revehue bill pac
ng a tax on hotel jmd tourist camp
rooms. They took thy position that
?ie tax, a j>ai!t of the sales tax pro
visions of the present revenue bill,
would be a tax not on merchandise,
but upon service, and that it would
>!ace the tourist hotels and camps in
North Carolina in unfair competition
with those of other states, and that
this would cost the western part of
Xorth Carolina, during the summer
season, many thousands of dollars,
and that the same loss would fall upon
!he Sand Hi Is country in the winter.
I'hey carried their ]>oint, and got t-hfc
tax stricken ot>t of the bill; but it i.
an open secret that they held a big
stick over the Senate in so doing, by
threatening to join the two per tffnt?
ers or the anti-sales taxers, which
would have assured so throwing the
joint that it would have neld the
General Assembly in session for an
indefinite period, or forced the Gov
ernor to call an early special session
to balance the budget. v
There appears to be little ho]>o, even
among the wettest of the wets, that |
the Hill liquor control bill will have
a ghost of a chance of passing at this
session. At the same time, the con
viction is growing, that unless there
is a turning of the wet tide in other
parts of the country, especially in
nearby states, and that soon, North
Carolina will be forced to adopt some
other moans of controlling the flo*v
of liquor than the present one, withjn
a few years. Virginjais f'ooding tHo
State of North Carolina with logjd
liquor; and how to meet this new
menace to the authority of North Car
olina law is a really big problem, re
quiring the best of sober, sane and j
unprejudiced thinking. It is perfectly
apparent that unless sentiment outside
the borders of North Carolina exper
iences a rapid revulsion, or imlc.ss
<:ome way can be devised to stop the
flow of liquor from outside, we shall,
whetehr we relish the idea or not, or
Whether the west wants it or not, see
liquor sold legally in North Carolina,
within the next few years. That is
as plain as the nose on a man's face.
The only really important measure
still held in abeyanee in commit too
is the school machinery bill, winch
Chairman R. L. Harris, of education
in the House, is holding awaiting the
fnal disposition of the revenue act.
A flood of bills continues to be
dropped in the hoppers in both Hbuso
and Senate, each day. They arc mostly
of a local nature; but it is a known
fact that should the General Assem
bly continue to sit until next Christ
mas, the legislators, or their folk"
back home, would continue to think
lup thing? that the Assembly should,
n their opinion, do, .and the flood of
daily bills mritimie. That' i.s
roa'ly one^qtf?t<im- ??ent.- objections to
lon^i^Af^noed-' session.
When t|j^/Jib1e -General Assembly
winds up, it is p*x>bable that the ma
jor legislat son will be the reen.net
meat, in large measure, of what was
done two years ago. The, sales tax
will remain, schedules in the revenue
bill will have been raised to mee'
increased ;?ppropriait>ons for public
schools and Stiate employees, but all
the principles will remnin. That
could have easily been done in sixty
days or less."
The only new building authorized
for any institution was the provision
for $15,000 to be spent on new con
struction at Western Carolina Teach
ers College at Cullowhee.
Political Observers Expect
Three Hats In Ring For
Gubernatorial Nomination
- i ?
(By DAN TOMPKINS)
Raleigh, April 10. ? The poiltical
minded in the State capita! and who
isn't, are giving much Thought to
two 1936 races that are developing;
that for Governor, and for Secretary
of State.
?i
Neither Clyde Hoey n*?r C'ongrc
man (Farmer Boh) Doughton has
yo't made any announcement as .to M?
intention to enter the :ists, nor, for,
that matter, foas Lieutenant (lovemorj
A. II. (Sandy) Graham; but it is jj
known fact that is not 10 be ovqjp
looked, tliat Sandy has developed mo:
strength while the General Assoinjjli
has beon in session than most peonjif
believed at the out-set wouild l>e the
case. A great many members of th '
General Assembly, present and past
are openly stating that They woiij
like to sec Sandy elevated to the G<fr
crnor's chair. He lias b?en identified
.~o long with the legislative branch--?!
the State government, thai he haa ?
wide acquaintance throughout Nortf
Carolina, and the peop'o know that hfc
knows wlilat it is all about when it
comes to the governmental problem?
and duties in North Carolina, though
it is geneieally un.'e:s'rod that the A<?
ministration in Rale'gh does not
with any gicat degree of favor upor
Sandy as the "Crown Prince", li
fact, siiuje Shelby furnished the prf>
deccssor of the present Administra
tion, and rt is nndt?rsl!ood that* ijf
tihrew its weight- in favor of t
present Governor, it is believed th
the Administration is looking in th
direction for a morn sympathetic su*
?'v ;
cessor.
Not only is the Lieutalfeiirt' QttVWE
or popular with tiie' l?gi?r
past and present years, he has^
ord of service to the IJnvt
gionaire. His friends pouftWt^t iWiJ/j
this shou'd l>e of great benefit rwhen
lie announces his candidacy, as he un
doubtedly will .do at the proper time,
regard'oss of who else runs.
The fact that Clyde Hoey, who i* ]
generally considered the most |w>piibir
man in the State, with all factions and
classes, came to Kaleigh 011 a memor
able occasion and appeared before a j
legislative committee, in the capacity
of attorney for the Duke Power
Company, whicr ;:s a ('itwn and :v
lawyer lie had a perfect right to do.
hasn't helped li s chances as a pros
pective gubernatorial candidal, 11; j
some quarters. On the other hand, >
many of his friends would prefer t'J ?
see Hoev with' Jd his fire until 103S,
and oast Bob Reynolds l'rom his scat
in the United Stotes Senate. Mr.
Hocy, so far as is known, hasn't told
: anybody what he exacts to do,
[jjiough he is in Raleigh today, and
has been here more frequently than
is his custom, during the sessions of
the General Assembly, and~a great
many people are of the opinion that
he is most seriously consid ering be
coming a candidate for Governor, and
Is also awaiting the rig/.; i-oment to
ttiy thai he will accept I; nomina
iOn. \
? <?
.Mr. Doughton, who is chairman of
Ways and ileans ComLittoe ol
tljhe Hou,se, up in Washington, and is
jgterefore, one of the most -owerful
^figures on the National j?ol!Tiea/; ho
srizon, and who can stay in vOngrcss
j^mtil tiie cows come home, if e " ants
Ho do so, has been keeping n iTiuch
closer touch with Raleigh tl n his
,J#?nt. A lot of folks believe tint he
will toss his hat into the ring t v *<>
round out his political earee as Gov [
ernor of the State. He is a <* .-t farm-;
er, and astute politician, ai '
know that if they vote foi hi; i for
Governor the i)robability b ia( they
?yjll never again be caled uj>-n to
<ote ifor him for anything vs< . He j
'Would make a strong appeal in many j
faction of the Slate, it it - frank >
predicted.
^lf Sandy Gi'ahani, Fai.aer Bcb
Doughton, anfl Clyde 11 cov ail decide
|fo run, and it is no'? unlivoly thai
Jihis will eventuate, it will lv a cam
igl? that will bp a niclnonaKc one in
fortli Carolina, and it is !?v t;o me-in
g?Ond the" probable that, with Hoey
jfthi lining up tneir force
Jt her, Saii-lt- would come
he leader or t..e runner-up
primary, r'act is, it i1
am iyin ft
ifve either of the two ..- strong ran
for ffi-s job. and that he "*>nld defear
boMi easier thirt lie eou'd me of them.
His legislative am! s< r oe connec
tions would carry him r J;>ng way, aim
his pleasing per?o!\a;' - a great
asset to 111 in at all tiniru.
It is no' secret tin - the popu'ar
Thad Eu re, |>rinc'"al ' !t*rk of th<1
House of Represontatico," will bo al
most sure to announce fr>r Secretory
of State against the wsert incum
bent, Stacey Wade. Eure knows peo
ple all over Nori'h Caro'ina, has boon
'ii every county seat in the State in
t^ip past two years, is alfo of pleasing
personality, is popular with legrs'a
?tors, and could gjvo Mr. Wade a lo!
of inconvenience in a State-wide race.
